I created the following multi-media widget through Sprout just to try out the technology . . . Click the tabs at the bottom of the red box and check out the ability of this multi-media widget. I only spent about 20 min. setting it up.

Here are a couple of FAQ to help you get started with yours . . .
1. What is a sprout and what can I do with it?

A sprout is a multi-media flash web site that can be created without knowing a stitch of flash or HTML. This sprout (also called a widget, mini-site, mashup) can be embedded in other websites, blogs or social networking profile pages. When you update your content, all sprouts (wherever they are) will update instantly.

Just like a traditional web page, a sprout can be used for promotional, informational or personal purposes.

2. Do I need to have previous graphic experience or to have design skills?

No. Sprout Builder is for all skill levels - novice to pro. It is simple drag and drop construction with an occasional click.

3. Is there a cost? What if I want to try it out?

It is free. Here are the steps, if you want to try it out:

1. Click on the blank slate under “create a new project”. 2. Type in a “title”, “project description” and select the “canvas size” (size of the page). 3.Click on “create project”, which will take you to the “stage” to create your first sprout.

Youth Pastor’s sometimes have great ideas but need someone in their lives to “JUST SAY NO”. . .
